Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

For introductions which have given me access to many of the documents cited in this volume I am indebted to the Rev. A. H. Johnson of All Souls, Oxford, and to Mr. Hubert Hall of the Public Record Office. The custodians of various collections of records have been most courteous, notably those in charge of the British Museum, the Bodleian library, the Public Record Office, the archives of the Dean and Chapter of Christ Church, Canterbury, and the estate documents at Holkham Hall. Messrs. J. M. Davenport and J. R. Symonds put at my disposal the enclosure awards of Oxfordshire and Herefordshire respectively. In making revisions and in correcting proof I have relied upon the skill and care of Miss A. F. Rowe of Cambridge. Professors C. H. Haskins and E. F. Gay of Harvard read the unfinished text and offered valuable suggestions; in particular I am under heavy obligation to Professor Gay, whose unfailing encouragement and generous assistance have made possible the publication of these chapters. H. L. G. Cambridge, Massachusetts, A ugust, 1915.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
